Ice Cendol and Goreng-Goreng



Ok..when you are in Malacca, Malaysia, you have to go to Museum Cafe (Jonker Dessert 88) at Jonker Street and try their ice cendol and goreng-goreng. We have similar ice cendol and goreng-goreng here in Indonesia, but I have to admit..in Malacca is better! I have to fairly admit this. For you that never try ice cendol, you might be surprised with the look of it. It looks like a green worms, made from flour and pandan leaves that gives the green color, serves with red beans, shoved ice, coconut milk and palm sugar. Now..what makes it better than the ones I had in Indonesia is the palm sugar. Gula Malacca is so famous for their distinguish taste and smell.

Goreng-goreng is basically fried stuffs, like tofu and fish cake..and what makes it so special is their sauce which you used to dip in the fried stuffs. The sauce is (again) from palm sugar, peanut, chili and asam (acid), so it's a mixed of sweet, spicy and sour. Trust me, it's yummy
